[xubuntu-users] 18.04 destroying my M.2 SSD

[Daniel Wastak]

I would be surprised if you didn't set your fstab to these settings

UUID=[Your blkid here] /      ext4    noatime,errors=remount-ro 0       1

also make sure swap is avoided. If you have a swap partition mounted in
fstab, get rid of it.

Finally, make sure you have at least 4g of memory and just make sure you
are not going over
the limitations of your memory, otherwise add more memory
